You co-own the cat.
The company that owns the stores you know as Aldis is Aldi Sud. It is a different company. The brothers split up BEFORE Trader Joe's was bought by Aldi Nord. One brother took Sud, one took Nord. The two are only related in that they are both called Aldis. They share nothing at this point, since both brothers are dead.

"The Parent" in your reference is the parent company of Trader Joe's, which is Aldi Nord. The store the USA refers to as Aldi's is owned by Aldi Sud.

And no, there are two cats. One is mine, and lives at my house. One is my sister's and lives at her house. We are sisters, but we do not share ownership of either of those cats.
